Are you considering getting breast implants, or have you had them for years? Did you know that implants, even if they seem safe, can introduce a host of toxic issues into your body? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Robert Whitfield, an expert in breast implant illness and the long-term effects implants can have on your health. Dr. Whitfield explains breast implant toxicity and the role it plays in a variety of health issues. We examine the often-overlooked risks, including bacterial contamination, chemical leaching, and the body’s immune response to foreign objects. Dr. Whitfield reveals that removing implants often leads to remarkable healing, as many of his patients experience immediate improvements in energy and overall well-being once the source of inflammation is removed. Besides dealing with inflammation, removing implants is about addressing the toxic burden and genetic factors that may be preventing proper detoxification. We also discuss alternatives to implants, the importance of pre-surgery prepping and detoxification, and post-surgery care. If you or someone you know has struggled with breast implant illness or is considering removal, this episode could give you the answers you need to make an informed decision about your health. “You have to be very cautious with all the things you put into and onto your body, because you never know which thing is going to be a problem for you specifically." ~ Dr. Robert Whitfield Connect with Dr. Robert Whitfield: Website - https://www.drrobertwhitfield.com/ Connect with Warren Phillips: Website - https://www.nontoxicdad.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nontoxicdad/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@nontoxicdad TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@nontoxicdad

Many people don’t realize how their breathing, or lack of it, affects everything from their nervous system to their overall health. In this episode, Dr. Sachin Patel and I dive deep into this powerful yet underrated tool for healing. We’ll discuss how something as simple as breathing can switch your body from a stressed fight-or-flight state to a relaxed healing state, which is crucial for proper digestion, emotional release, and energy restoration. We talk about pranayama, an ancient breathing technique that has helped many people improve mental clarity and emotional well-being. You don’t need to rely on supplements or complicated therapies because breathwork is free, accessible, and effective. Remember, your breath is always with you. With proper awareness, it can unlock profound changes in your mind and body. “The value of something to your health is determined by how long you can't live without it. You can last a week without drinking water. You can go a month without eating... But you can't survive without breathing for more than a few minutes, so that should just tell you immediately how valuable it is to your health.” ~ Dr. Sachin Patel Connect with Dr. Sachin Patel: Website - https://thelivingproofinstitute.com/ Connect with Warren Phillips: Website - https://www.nontoxicdad.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nontoxicdad/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@nontoxicdad TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@nontoxicdad

Ever felt sick, inflamed, or foggy for “no reason”? Dr. Jessica Peatross reveals why your body may be drowning in toxins and how simple detox habits can change everything. Dr. Jess is one of the smartest, most intuitive detox doctors I’ve ever met. Today, we discuss what’s really keeping people sick and how we can heal. From sunlight to sweat to stress, Dr. Jess breaks down the simple, science-backed strategies that help your body heal itself. And trust me, she brings the fire. We get into her journey from hospital medicine to holistic health, and why she walked away from a system that pushes medications over true healing. She shares how sunlight activates your mitochondria, why your circadian rhythm is biologically tied to the sun, and how sunglasses and conventional sunscreen might be doing more harm than good. Dr. Jess also dives deep into how sweating removes pesticides, plastics, and heavy metals, and what it means when your body overheats without breaking a sweat. We also talk about the everyday toxins hiding in detergents, candles, air fresheners, clothing, cosmetics, and even on your phone screen. If you want to feel better, think clearer, and live cleaner, this episode gives you the roadmap. “If you really want to have energy, you need to be charged out in the sun. And so I tell people, if you're privileged enough to move your body, you should lift weights in the sun. That's like two gold stars instead of one.” ~ Dr. Jessica Peatross, MD In This Episode: - The broken system of allopathic medicine - Sunlight as the ultimate healer - Sweating: one of the most powerful detox tools - How chronic stress and nutrient deficiencies can lead to disease - The three most important blood tests for overall health - Everyday household toxins that disrupt hormones - The truth about air fresheners, candles, and synthetic fragrances - The top 3 signs of magnesium and zinc deficiency Connect with Dr. Jessica Peatross, MD: Website - https://drjessmd.com/ Connect with Warren Phillips: Website - https://www.nontoxicdad.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nontoxicdad/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@nontoxicdad TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@nontoxicdad

Have you ever wondered what really causes cancer and chronic illnesses? Is there hope for healing after a cancer diagnosis? In this episode of Non-Toxic Living, Nasha Winters, a naturopathic doctor and integrative oncology expert, joins me to share her powerful journey of overcoming stage 4 ovarian cancer. Together, we dive into the truth about cancer and healing. Nasha’s story is a testament to the power of healing the body through natural, terrain-based approaches. We discuss how cancer and chronic illness are deeply connected to the environment around us, and how toxins in our food, air, and soil are playing a significant role in this crisis. But this isn’t about fear—it’s about empowerment. This is where our journey begins: questioning the narrative, understanding the true causes of illness, and rebuilding a healthier, more sustainable life for ourselves and our families. If this message resonates with you, share it with someone who needs to hear it. Why Early Detection Is Not the Same as Prevention “Things have to be big enough and loud enough to even detect them at an early stage. And so, if you're just waiting until something shows up, you're too late; it's already active and on the move. True prevention is about evaluating the whole terrain, not looking for cancer, but looking for things that could contribute to cancer.” - Nasha Winters, ND In This Episode: - Nasha’s journey to overcoming stage 4 ovarian cancer - A deeper look at cancer and what’s happening in the body - The power of healing through nature - Nasha's experience at cancer healing retreats - Why early detection is not the same as prevention - The #1 thing that fuels cancer…and determines the prognosis - What to do if you get diagnosed with cancer Resources: Quantum Healing by Deepak Chopra - https://www.amazon.com/dp/0553348698 The Metabolic Approach to Cancer by Dr. Nasha Winters - https://www.mtih.org/resources/book The Sheer Ecstasy of Being a Lunatic Farmer by Joel Salatin - https://www.amazon.com/dp/0963810960 Non-Toxic Living Community - Join the Movement https://nontoxicliving.com/ntc/vsl?utm_source=social&utm_campaign=podep2nasha Connect with Dr. Nasha Winters: Website - https://drnasha.com/ Metabolic Terrain Institute of Health Website - https://www.mtih.org/ Connect with Warren Phillips: Website - https://www.nontoxicdad.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nontoxicdad/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@nontoxicdad TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@nontoxicdad

Have you ever wondered what’s really in the clothes you wear or the sheets you sleep on? In this episode of Non-Toxic Living, I’m exposing one of the dirtiest industries on the planet– the textile industry. From polyester fabrics to supposedly “organic” cotton, our wardrobes are quietly contributing to health issues we rarely trace back to what’s touching our skin. I uncover how microplastics, hormone-disrupting chemicals, and synthetic dyes find their way from your clothes into your body and why “eco-friendly” doesn’t always mean toxin-free. You’ll learn how even premium brands use petroleum-based dyes, flame retardants, and formaldehyde to make fabrics stretch, look soft, or resist stains at the cost of your long-term health. But this isn’t just about what’s wrong. I’ll share the brands doing it right, such as Harvest & Mill, Esmaee, and Namarie, as well as practical steps you can take today to detoxify your wardrobe. You’ll also learn about standards like GOTS-certified and how to find clothing and sheets that support, not compromise, your health. This episode serves as a wake-up call to anyone who wants to live cleaner, breathe more easily, and feel better in their own skin. Listen in to discover how to choose fabrics that love your body back — and why true wellness starts with what you wear. “The textile industry doesn’t really care about your health; it really doesn't care about your skin. It cares about profits.” - Warren Phillips If you find this helpful, please share it with a friend who cares about their health and the future of their family. In This Episode: - The dirty truth about the textile industry - Microplastics, BPA, and hormone disruptors in clothing - Why your “organic” clothes may still be toxic - The hidden chemicals in dyes and sheets - No to harmful detergents and yes to genuine non-toxic certifications - Shopping recommendations for the health-conscious consumer - Surprising studies on polyester and fertility - Building a healthier wardrobe that supports your biology Resources: GOTS-Certified Suppliers & Shops - https://global-standard.org/find-suppliers-shops-and-inputs/certified-suppliers/database/search Patagonia - https://www.patagonia.com/our-footprint/ Namarie Plant-Based Fabrics - https://namarie.com?sca_ref=9878722.h3KiLVCLC4QS NONTOXICDAD for 15% off AIZOME Organic Sheets - https://aizome-textiles.com/pages/ntd-lp Harvest & Mill Organic Clothing - https://tidd.ly/3WPLVIk NONTOXICDAD for 10% off NADS Organic Cotton Underwear - https://bit.ly/4elndqY NONTOXICDAD for 15% off Non-Toxic Living Community - Join the Movement https://nontoxicliving.com/ntc/vsl?utm_source=social&utm_campaign=podep1textile Connect with Warren Phillips: Website - https://www.nontoxicdad.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nontoxicdad/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@nontoxicdad TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@nontoxicdad
